Abstract With the growing integration of the Internet of Things (IoT), low-altitude intelligent networks, and vehicular networks, smart city traffic systems are gradually evolving into an air–ground integrated intelligent monitoring framework. However, traditional centralized model training faces challenges such as high network load due to massive data transmission, energy management difficulties for mobile devices like UAVs, and privacy risks associated with non-anonymized road operation data. Therefore, this paper proposes an air–ground collaborative federated learning framework that integrates Bayesian prediction and an incentive mechanism to achieve privacy protection and communication optimization through localized model training and differentiated incentive strategies. Simulation experiments demonstrate that, compared to the Equal Contribution Algorithm (ECA) and the Importance Contribution Algorithm (ICA), the proposed method improves model convergence speed while reducing incentive costs, providing theoretical support for the reliable operation of large-scale intelligent traffic monitoring systems. © 2025 by the authors.
